We might instead just poke them in the sense of "feel free to add as many or as few details as you'd like in question 1"
For question 1, perhaps a good addition to description would be something alone the lines of "Extra assumptions will not be made". E.g. "Man" should translate to "<unknown>, Man", not "Cisgender, Man"

I would also advocate for "transsexual" after "transgender" as there is a slight semantic difference imho. I would also advocate for a "genderqueer" option and an "other" option.
Edit: I have chosen against suggesting "Questioning" because it's not someone's identity per se. It's rather that they're unsure of their identity. If someone is questioning, they should pick whatever they currently identify with in q2, and add "questioning details" in q1.

But identity for many people is much more complicated than that and, in my view several responses would be inaccurately represented unless you create an super exhaustive list.

TaylorSwiftsPickles Link ParentOpen-ended input with as little standardisation/"label-fitting"/categorisation as possible (aside from capitalisation and spelling), please.I have some ideas but I'd like to hear other people's thoughts too since I think historically this has been one of the more debated questions in the demographics surveys. And I think this one's an important one not to mess up. Let me know!

Comment on The big little penis panic in ~life.men
TaylorSwiftsPickles (edited )Link ParentIdk, unless you all stared at each other's fully-erect gas station pepperoni sticks, I don't think you'd really be able to actually tell, as some people are growers and some are not?The military is a different story, and after 20 years, I'm pretty confident I've seen more dicks than anyone I know. It's gotta be thousands or more at this point. Very early on I found out that I was quite average, and any fear in that area quickly went away.
The real question is what would I do if I wasn't though? If I was truly way smaller than every other guy in the barracks or locker room, how do you deal with that, in a society that makes it out to be one of the most important aspects of being a man?

For the next month I'm prescribing you a de-evil-eye-ing plan consisting of wearing your underwear inside out, consuming a clove of garlic per day (minimum), placing a nazar amulet on the server rack, and getting de-evil-eye-d by a local old lady skilled in the craft.

It’s almost inevitable that you’ll change a lot of the landscape as you play.

Personally, I disagree. If you prefer not to say, with regards to any survey question, you should just not participate. However feel free to reply "Prefer not to say" in the free-form text.
